Bit of a newbie question. I'm looking to buy the new iPhone when it comes out. Will I keep the progress on my apps? Not that important in the grand scheme of things but was just wondering from all you people on your second or third iPhone.
Got a tip for us?

hmm...
Well, if you back up your phone right before you activate your new phone and then copy that backup to the new phone then all of your "progress" should be the same on the new phone. Some apps use the cloud to keep progress so it's a mixed hat. Are you familiar with backing up your iPhone using iTunes?

yeah app progress should be kept if you either backup to itunes or via icloud.
I would recommend backing up to icloud, as it backs up your phone everytime you plug your phone in, put it to sleep and connected to a wifi network. Don't even have to think about it

Good news then. I've got hours invested in Angry birds, Cut the Rope and Tower madness! Plus my favourite Swordigo. Mind you I've completed that now and wish they would do a Swordigo 2. Thanks for the advice. I'll have a look into icloud verses PC.
For apps that support the cloud, yes. Make sure you have "documents and data" switched to on within iCloud.
